I don't think people are trying to justify the actions of the girl. I agree that the pit was not the right thing to do at those speeds. The cop knew exactly what would happen if he used it at that high rate of speed. There were no weapons shown or any other show of agression by the driver other than the high speeds. I hope the parents sue the state for wrongful death. The girl wasn't ramming cops or other cars in her attempts to get away. There are definately other ways to try and stop the vehicle at those speeds that wouldn't result in such a catastrophic crash. Now if she had just killed someone or tried shooting at the cops and was running I could see them using such force but this was not the case.

In any case the girl was stupid but she didn't deserve to die and neither did her passenger. Just take alook at the "What's the fastest mph you went?" thread. Plenty of us have gone faster, should we have been spun out of control at speed by a cop because of it? We were all guilty of the same thing as this girl at that point, driving fast.

I can't speak for the people driving fast in that thread you mentioned but if I cop does find me and want to pull me over I'm not going to continue to endanger lives by not pulling over. Either way thats neither here nor there but the kids got what they deserved :beer:

You have got to be kidding me. They deserved to die because of trying to run from the cops. That is just fvcked up.

I forgot running from police is a capital offense :roll:

it's not, but being an utter fvcking idiot should be....

The cop did the right thing. Those kids could have cause more death and needed to be stopped.

WRONG, it wasn't those kids. It was the driver and only the driver.

That cop needs to go to jail for a long time for the murder of an innocent 17 year old.

If the driver survived, SHE would be the one that would be going to jail.

Collateral damage. Put the blame where it belongs, squarely on the driver.

She was endangering others' lives. Same situation as a gunman firing into a crowd.

You endanger everyone's lives when you drive. Let's shoot you.
She was going 86 mph tops. People speed 86mph on highways all the time. I would agree with you if she was going the wrong way on the interstate or ramming cars. But in this case, I think if the cop didn't kill them for kicks, noone would get hurt. Are you saying the cops who chased them before georgia cops took over were irresponsible by not doing a PIT earlier?

doesnt it say in the video she was going over 100?

and cant you two idiots (supertool and gigapet) delete all of the crap quotes and just quote that last one you are replying to? man that is annoying...you would think people with over 7 posts would figure that out.

edit: she was clocked at 86 you tard...it says RIGHT after that she was going over 100

THANK YOU! She was getting pulled over for doing 86, yet in the chase she exceeded 100 miles an hr.

And whoever said something about running out of gas quicker going faster...it takes roughly the same amount of gas to go 40 as it does 70 or 80...she could have been goin a long time for all they knew, which in turn causes possible harm to more people.

um, 100mph isn't all that fast. Most behicles out there can do significantly more than that.

That is complete BS. She fought the law and the law won by an UNINTENTIONAL KO You're the same person that would have been screaming bloody murder about why the cops didn't stop her if the stupid bitch caused a ten car pile up and killed several other innocent people. She endangered the life of the passenger....not the cops. The passenger could have been Osama Bin Laden for all the cops knew She is the ONLY person to blame and I have no remorse for the pure stupidity she displayed. She killed the passenger by not stopping the freakin car. *end of rant*

 

[Ornery]

1. Cops didn't purposely kill anybody.
2. The SUV driver was NOT a victim.
3. I'm betting the fvcktards ragging on the cop, are also voting for Kerry.

 

[amdguy]

supertool is fvcking MORON, you should go shoot yourself.

the cops are RISKING THEIR OWN LIVES to get rid of those 2 retarded drivers off the road BEFORE THEY Kill ANYONE ELse..

WE SHOULD BE THANKFUL for the cops cleansing the gene pool for us WHILE RISKING THEIR VERY OWN LIFE!!!

THE DRIVER DESERVED everything she've got and I am just happy that she is DEAD, VERY DEAD!! Because if she is not dead this time, I am sure she will pull off the same stunt again in the future killing someone else in the process

they should have sent a Apache AH64 and blast them with the 30MM cannon or Hellfire those morons

I don't think the cops took the passenger into account. For all they know he wanted her to stop the car. This is why I think they should have tried to shoot out the tires or something else.

Sorry, the police cannot "shoot out" tires. All shots fired is considered deadly force and must be justified.



Here in California, the PITT is being reconsidered. For some departments, the PITT manuver is considered deadly force. Others have guidelines where you cannot PITT a vehicle going over 35mph. CHP just recently lost the PITT because the state couldn't repair/replace the car's fast enough.



Spike strips are rarely effective for a couple reasons. Spike strips have to be manually deployed on the street/highway. I don't know about you guys but they don't pay me enough to stand in FRONT of the pursuit vechile to throw a spike strip. Also, you can't really pre-lay spike strips because the suspect would just avoid it. Covering the whole street would spike strips would disable the suspect's vehicle but in the same time disabling police vehicles. City doesn't like to pay for damages they can avoid.


Spike strips at that rate of speed probably would have generated the same outcome. If a SUV can flip with 1 Firestone flat, image 4 :Q



-Jimbo

I disagree about spike strips. Look in Galls at rolling stop-sticks, and read some of the things said about them. I recently viewed a video of a drunk male in a Chevy Blazer that was succesfully apprehended using stop-sticks at 80+ mph.

 

[Night201]

Link is dead. Anyone have a mirror or can someone send it to me?

 

[Biggerhammer]

I'd rule this one assisted suicide at the worst. It's terrible that the passenger died too, since he was presumably not involved in the driving, but if the smacktard in the driver's seat had done more than 70 miles at speeds reaching 100mph, she had already risked enough innocent lives to justify the extreme measures taht the police had to use.

On a four-lane highway, spiking would not have worked. There's too much blacktop to spike and too many uninvolved vehicles. No stationary measure would have had any significant chance to stop the jeep. Boxing the jeep in would require at least four units, very well-driven, and at best would have wound up with 1-4 damaged police cars, a damaged jeep, and spurious lawsuits by the perp. At worst you would have a few more totalled cop cars, a few more police widows and the perp would still be dead.

This outcome looks like the best choice out of a really bad lot.

Yup, a 70 mile chase was too long imho. I think they should have pitted him earlier
